                        ║⛓║    a slightly sketchy, somewhat-reliable-but-mostly-not proxy that's     ║⛓║

                        ║⛓║    Configure Proxy 3 as an Onion (TOR) server. This will route your      ║⛓║

                        ║⛓║    At this point, your chain is already precariously balanced. Add a     ║⛓║
